Temperature controlled enclosure (atce)

A portable and rechargeable temperature controlled case, comprising:

• an enclosure partitioned into a plurality of subassembly modules and having a thermal cavity formed therein, said thermal cavity having four insulated walls, a first insulated top lid, and a bottom, said bottom comprising a thermal manifold whose top surface forms an inside bottom surface of said thermal cavity, a plurality of Peltier devices connected in thermal communication to a bottom side of said thermal manifold, a lower heat sink connected in thermal communication to a bottom surface of said plurality of Peltier devices, said enclosure also including following subassemblies:
• a temperature controller with an integrated user interface, said temperature controller controlling said plurality of Peltier devices in order to maintain a target temperature within said thermal cavity;
• a thermal transfer device for heating or cooling said thermal cavity, said thermal transfer device including said Peltier devices, said thermal manifold and said lower heat sink;
• a power supply module;
• a rechargeable battery in electrical communication with said power supply, said temperature controller and said thermal transfer device;
• an auxiliary electronics module for electrically connecting said subassemblies to one another;
• said enclosure defining an external case including four walls extending upward from a base, and a second lid, and containing said subassembly modules and said thermal cavity for removably holding temperature sensitive articles;
• said first lid cooperatively engaging said thermal cavity for forming an air tight seal with a top edge of said insulated walls of said thermal cavity;
• at least one side handle extending from an outside surface of at least one side wall of said enclosure;
• and
• said temperature controller including GPS location tracking, USB connectivity, BLUE TOOTH and WIFI connectivity, and capable of transmitting thermal cavity temperature history and enclosure location to connected devices including cell phones and WIFI capable computers.
